The Range returns with new single "Bicameral"
The Range, aka James Hinton, has returned with new single "Bicameral".
"Bicameral", in Hinton's own words, "represents the beginning of a move into a more ethereal space in my music," and marks his first outing since collaborating with Tourist on "Last" in 2020.
Hinton adds of the song, "I began working on it while on a retreat in Nicaragua in 2016, and finished it in 2020 in Vermont, and so it uniquely captures a lot of the extreme positive and negative memories over that time. In this song the original vocal – a song called "The Road" by the Eritrean singer Bemnet Tekleyohannes – is "When you lighten" but I like that the interpretation of "When you lied - when you lied to me" is equally readable as the phrase repeats and changes."
Hinton's last album as The Range was 2016's Potential.
